Has "setting boundaries" turned into an excuse for treating people like they're disposable? We're seeing a concerning trend in our therapy rooms: people are using self-care language to justify ghosting, dishonesty, and basic human decency.

In conversation, we tackle:

The wild disconnect between how we treat strangers IRL vs. potential partners online
Why your "I don't owe anyone anything" mindset might be sabotaging your chances at real connection
The uncomfortable truth about why you're really keeping those dating app matches around
How friend groups can enable poor behavior (yes, we're looking at those "slay queen" responses)
What evolution and psychology tell us about why we actually DO need each other
Tips for how to maintain boundaries while also being a more caring person
